Question Scale models

Anybody know where I could get a scale model of my car? I have a '95 Z28 but I wouldn't care about the year as long as the model was of a 93-97.

Good luck finding a 95! I've seen 96-97's but no 95's BTW did you get that battery fixed? Try Lane Collectables in Coloma/Watervliet Same as Lane Automotive.

I'll try Lane, thanks for the suggestion...

No, I didn't get the battery fixed. Knock on wood, she starts up every time I try now. I'm thinking if she keeps starting up just fine I'll probably wait until spring to get her a new battery. Q was going to hook me up with a battery, but then I had to get the brakes on my ol' rusty but trusty fixed instead. College student, y'know? Not a lot of $$$

You could also check the Interstate battery dealer on M-96 halfway between Galesburg and Augusta. I got a blemished battery there for my T/A for $25.

I actually have the 1995(I think) F-1 Z28 Camaro Model. It's like 1:20th scale I think. Still in box ready to be assembled and painted. On the box, it looks just like Frezza's beast, just with ZR-1 style rims. For sale? yes it is I'd call it rare I guess and I don't need it

I looked around for a long time for a '94 Z28, but everything I found was a 96 or 97 and was a convertible or t-tops, no coupe. I finally got tire of looking and bought a '94 Model Kit of EBAY and made one that exactly matches my car. I throw it on top of my intake when I got to car show.....Kinda like Mini-Me...only Mini-Z....

Good Luck

you can find plastic replicas really easily........i know there are quite a few hobby shops that carry some of the earlier prototypes as well as eartl's versions. i believe they run around $20 and are pretty detailed as far as the molding goes. if you can wait they are always for sale at autorama in the toy vender areas.

2nd and 3rdgens are the hardest to find.

Rebecca,
AMT/ERTL makes a 1995 Z28coupe model. My brother bought me one for my car a few years ago. I just found one on ebay for $3.00, here's the website:

If you don't get this one you can search for 1995 Camaro in Toys & Hobbies/Models. There's usually a few of them in there.

I've been looking everywhere for a 95 Z with T-tops for the last 2 years also and I'm still empty handed. Now I would also like to find a 93-97 in the die cast model like Killer jellos. Sounds really neat. Tell your Dad I want one too.

I have an AMT (I think) model in 1/24 scale of the 1993 INDY 500 pace car Camaro, still in the plastic wrapped box. Never been opened!
